Chapter 12: Plotting for You
Seeing Qi Yunzhi struggling in the water like a water dog, the anger in Fang Moji's heart dissipated a little. The lake is not deep, only up to Qi Yunzhi's waist, but there is a lot of silt at the bottom of the lake, and he will not be able to climb up for a while.
Fang Mojiao rubbed her ankle, which was a little painful, and said viciously: "The surname is Qi, don't think that I am a woman and I am easy to bully, let me tell you, whether it is in this life, the next life or the next life, I can't look down on you aunt and grandmother." Your Qi family only relied on your aunt, a married daughter, to have today's status, and you really take yourself seriously? ”
After speaking, he ignored Qi Yunzhi's angry red eyes and continued: "If you dare to say anything about this today, I will tell my uncle that you want to plot against me, and I want to see if my uncle believes me or believes you." ”
Hearing her threat, Qi Yunzhi had a vicious expression on his face, "You vicious woman, you wait for me, and when this son marries you home, I must torture you well." ”
Fang Mojiao glanced at him contemptuously, picked up a stone from the ground and threw it at him, "Idiot dreams." ”
Qi Yunzhi's forehead was hit by a stone, which made him grin in pain, and when he was about to scold, he found Fang Mozhi running away with her skirt.
Fang Mojiao came back from the Huxin Pavilion, panting and said to Baixi: "Quickly call someone to save Qi Gongzi, he accidentally fell into the lake." ”
Baixi could see clearly on the shore that the reason why Qi Yunzhi fell into the lake was actually kicked by Fang Mojiao. Baixi, who had been serving her girl for almost ten years, couldn't believe her eyes, and if she hadn't been stopped by Jian Yan, she would have almost screamed.
Since this was the girl's order, Baixi immediately did so, pinched his throat and shouted loudly: "Come on, come on, Qi Gongzi fell into the lake." ”
Her voice quickly attracted others, and someone heard the sound coming this way, Fang Mojiao saw this, and quickly pulled Jian Yan and Baixi to hide behind the hillside on the side.
"Girl, will Gongzi Qi confess you?" Baixi was worried.
Fang Moji smiled and shook her head, "Don't worry, Qi Yunzhi has the best face, he won't say anything about the ugly thing of being kicked into the lake by a woman." ”
Jian Yan on the side suddenly spoke, "Cousin knows him very well? ”
Fang Mojiao's smile froze for a moment, "I've seen someone as pretentious as him in the capital, it's not strange." ”
Jian Yan didn't ask again, and then Baixi whispered: "Girl, he was rescued." ”
Fang Mojiao quietly poked her head out, only to see Qi Yunzhi and the Qi family's family rescued, the waist was full of mud, and the whole person was as embarrassed as he was.
She chuckled out a gloating chuckle, suddenly noticed the gaze of the person next to her, turned her head to look over, and saw Jian Yan staring at her with burning eyes.
Fang Mojiao smiled at him uncomfortably and greeted Baixi, "The one surnamed Qi has been rescued, let's go and meet Cousin Yu and Big Sister." ”
The three of them came out from behind the hillside and went straight to the meeting place they had agreed with Zheng Yu. When they arrived, Zheng Yu and Fang Moyu were already waiting there.
Then they went to look for Jane's family, and Second Brother Jian saw them and asked, "Where have you been, but let's wait." ”
Zheng Yu said: "Cousin Yan and I came late, walked around, and happened to meet Cousin Yan and Miss Fang, so we came over together. ”
After speaking, he asked: "When I came, I saw my cousin with the Qi family, why didn't I see them?" ”
Second Brother Jian frowned, "Cousin Qi didn't know what to think, he had to go to the Huxin Pavilion to admire the withered lotus leaves, but he accidentally fell into the lake, and he was already sent back to the Qi family by the family, and the cousins of the Qi family were worried about him, so they also went back." ”
After Fang Moyu heard Qi Yunzhi's excuse for falling into the water, the corners of her mouth couldn't help but bend, Fang Moyu was close to her, and she clearly saw her expression. I suddenly understood in my heart that Qi Yunzhi's overfall was related to his cousin.
It's hard to ask when there are a lot of people, and when she returns to Liufang Courtyard, she retreats from the maids who are waiting, and asks, "Tell me honestly, did you do anything when Qi Yunzhi fell into the water?" ”
Fang Mojiao didn't intend to hide it from her, and admitted: "That's right, I kicked him down." Whoever told him to have a disgusting face, I couldn't help but gag when I saw him. ”
"Did he bully you?" Fang Mo's tone changed.
"He dares." Fang Mojiao's expression instantly became condensed, "If he dares to touch a single hair of me, I will make him regret coming to this world." ”
Fang Mojiao was full of contempt for herself in her dream, she was born in a big family, her parents were pampered, and she had two brothers to support her, but she was bullied by Qi Yunzhi's gang and the Qi family for several years. If he hadn't met Jian Yan, he would have to keep struggling in the fire pit of the Qi family.
Fang Moyu had never seen such a cousin, so she took her hand and said, "It's good if you don't have it." If he has ill intentions towards you, you must not bear it, let's go back to Beijing to find my father and second uncle to call the shots, and we will make him pay. ”
Fang Mojiao nodded, and her tone softened, "I listen to the big sister." ”
The two sisters no longer discussed matters related to Qi Yunzhi, and Fang Moyu asked Jian Yanlai again, "Second sister, seeing that we are about to return to Beijing, I want to ask you what you think of the Jian family's cousin?" ”
"Why did the big sister ask about him?" Fang Mojiao was a little puzzled.
Fang Mo said: "I see that you care too much about him, and I am afraid that you will ...... him."
She didn't say the latter words, but Fang Mojiao knew what she meant, "Because his situation is a little pitiful, that's why he is good, and I have always treated him as a younger brother." ”
Hearing this, Fang Moyu was much more relieved, "So that's the case." "As long as it's not a relationship between a man and a woman.
"Big sister, what are you thinking?" Fang Mojiao muttered.
Fang Mo said softly: "I'm just worried." Although the cousin of the Jian family is a good person, it is impossible for you to marry him, and the second uncle and second aunt will never agree to your marriage to him. ”
These Fang Mojiao also knew that in that dream, after she came out of the Qi family's fire pit, Jian Yan had to marry her for some reasons. He was supposed to be the benefactor who rescued her from the fire pit, but he was disgusted by her parents and brothers for marrying her privately, and it was not until the last two years of her life that they forgave him.
Fang Mojiao's feelings for Jian Yan are very complicated, in addition to gratitude, there is also guilt. In this life, she will not marry Qi Yunzhi, and she will not become husband and wife with Jian Yan again, the kindness in her previous life has not been repaid, and the guilt has not disappeared, she just wants to make his situation better within her ability.
Before returning to Beijing, Fang Mojiao went to find Mrs. Jian, and the grandfather and grandson locked up in the study and chatted for most of the day, and finally Mrs. Jian asked Jian Yan to call in.
Jian Yan didn't know what his grandfather had asked him to do, but when he saw Fang Mojiao standing next to Old Lady Jian, he expected that this matter must have something to do with her.
"Write a few words to show the old man." Old Lady Jane looked at him with a torch in her eyes.
Jian Yan raised her head and glanced at Fang Mojiao, Fang Mojiao nodded with him, and volunteered: "Grandfather, I'll polish the ink, and Cousin Yan writes." ”
Old lady Jane bowed her head.
Fang Mojiao walked to the front of the case and began to grind the ink, and when she saw Jian Yan still standing there, she urged: "Cousin Yan, what are you still doing in a daze, come and write!" ”
Jian Yan walked over slowly, the rice paper had been laid on the table, and the ink had been polished, just waiting for him to put down the pen.
Fang Mojiao encouraged him in a low voice, "Cousin Yan, don't be nervous, just play like you usually do." ”
Jian Yan's eyes stayed on the pot of chrysanthemums on the shelf on the left side of the study, and wrote down, "Flowers do not bloom and a hundred flowers are bushes, and the independent sparse hedge is not endless." I'd rather die with incense on the branches, how could he have blown down in the north wind."
This is the poem "Han Ju" by the poet Zheng Sixiao of the previous dynasty, Jian Yan has repeatedly studied this poem, and he feels that he is like the chrysanthemum described in this poem, he has always walked alone. The freshness of Baihua has nothing to do with chrysanthemums, and the liveliness of Jane's Mansion has nothing to do with him.
Old lady Jian paced forward, only to feel that the four lines of big characters on the table were chic and delicate, rigid with soft, soft with rigid.
"What a good one would rather die with incense on the branches, how could he have blown down in the north wind!" His gaze moved to Jian Yan's face, and he saw a cold and noble temperament from this grandson who had never received his attention, which the other grandchildren of the Jian family did not have.
"Now that the words have been written, Jian Yan won't bother you." The young man bowed to Old Lady Jian and said, he didn't ask Old Lady Jian what he was looking for him, and he didn't want to know.
Fang Mojiao hurriedly said: "Grandfather, you promised me that as long as Cousin Yan's words satisfy you, you will take him with you to teach him personally." ”
Jian Yan looked at Fang Mojiao with heavy eyes, she didn't notice that he was looking at her, she only looked at Old Lady Jian with a look of hope.
